   repository requires reasonably up-to-date versions of <SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>bison</SPAN

   <SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>flex</SPAN
>, and <SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>Perl</SPAN
>. These tools are not needed
   to build from a distribution tarball since the files they are used to build
   are included in the tarball.  Other tool requirements are the same as shown
   in <A

>Chapter 15</A
